SC220055 Highway Condition Survey

Tender description

<p>Kent County Council (KCC) owns and maintains a substantial highway network, with our roads and footways being by far our largest asset group.</p> <p>The Council must ensure it achieves the most value and the best long-term condition for its road and footway assets. To do this, the Council needs to understand the condition of its assets to be able to target planned works at the locations where it will deliver the most value.</p> <p>The Council achieve this by regularly surveying the condition of its roads and footways. The results of these surveys are used to measure and report the overall network condition, identify sites for works where it is likely to achieve the best outcomes and undertake strategic modelling of asset condition in the future.</p> <p>This is delivered through the Highway Condition Survey service. This covers the condition surveys themselves, the analysis of the survey data including scheme modelling, the provision and hosting of the data/pavement management system used to host and analyse the data.</p> <p>As part of this process, we intend to conduct some market engagement meetings during the week commencing 14^th March 2022. We will send invites to these meetings based on responses to the attached questions.
